Equivocation \E*quiv`o*ca"tion\, n.
   The use of expressions susceptible of a double signification,
   with a purpose to mislead.

         There being no room for equivocations, there is no need
         of distinctions.                         --Locke.

   Syn: Prevarication; ambiguity; shuffling; evasion; guibbling.
        See {Equivocal}, a., and {Prevaricate}, v. i.
